Thread regarding L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. layoffs

@Curious George - No furloughs have certain rules that are associated with them. One such rule is "An employee shall return to the current position" the company can continue to tell employees to stay home, until they reach a certain time limit (the time limit no longer depends on company size, the state its in and the number of employees furloughed) the federal department of labor has enacted a base law for all states that requires a 30-day notice of furloughs lasting 30 days (22 calendar days) or less, and employees are entitled to respond to any proposals orally or in writing. Also only hourly pay employees can be furloughed, salary employees cannot be furloughed.
